Alfa Laval wins SEK 50 million cleantech order in Malaysia

Alfa Laval – a world leader in heat transfer, centrifugal separation and fluid handling – has received an order for an evaporation system to a pulp and paper mill plant in Malaysia. The order value is about 50 MSEK and delivery will be completed in 2011.

The Alfa Laval evaporation system will be used in a process to concentrate black liquor, a by-product from the pulp and paper production, for further re-use as fuel in the plant. In addition the steam, which is the result from the concentration process, will be condensed and re-used as water in the process thus further reducing the environmental impact of the plant.

"The new plant is designed to enable a higher concentration of the black liquor than industry average, which will result in a better quality of the fuel as well as more process water recovered for the plant. All in all, an environmentally sound solution", says Lars Renström, President and CEO of the Alfa Laval Group.

Did you know… that the Alfa Laval process solution results in such high quality of the black liquor that it can supply the majority of the plant's energy demand?
